Abstract

The Conference season will shortly be upon us. No sooner have librarians returned from their holidays than they will be packing their bags again, either for Edinburgh, London, Hastings or Denmark. If they are Scotland‐bound, it will be the I.F.L.A. Conference that will be attracting them. Those coming to London will be concerned with the F.I.D. Conference to be held from 6 to 16 of September. This is rapidly followed by the Library Association's own conference at Hastings in the third week of September, and then some librarians will be on their way to Denmark for the Anglo‐Scandinavian meetings. Truly a gaggle of conferences all of a piece, but this happens to be an exceptional year. Not always do we have the pleasure of welcoming the I.F.L.A. and F.I.D. Conferences to this country, but we are delighted to have them and wish all delegates a happy and successful time. As for the Anglo‐Scandinavian Conference, that only takes place every four or five years, and this year it is the turn of Denmark to be the host country. We can be sure that our Danish colleagues will be excellent hosts, both during the meetings and for the library study tour that follows them.
